Overview:
The narrative follows the aftermath of a raid on the Aogiri hideout. Previously, ghouls from Anteiku invaded the location to attempt a rescue of Ken Kaneki, who was undergoing torture. During this confrontation, Kaneki was provoked beyond his limits and unleashed a significant amount of power, which allowed him to defeat Yamori. Following this event, Kaneki made the decision to leave Anteiku behind and join Aogiri in an effort to become stronger. As Kaneki integrates into Aogiri, the situation remains volatile. Simultaneously, ghoul investigators have begun making strategic moves to track the movements of the individuals involved. These investigators are actively gathering information regarding the identity and activities of the Eyepatch Ghoul, who is known to be Ken Kaneki. The tension between the various factions increases as investigators focus their efforts on uncovering the truth behind this specific ghoul. This shift in Kaneki's allegiance and the intensified scrutiny from investigators set the stage for the ongoing conflict in Tokyo, where mysterious ghouls continue to haunt the city by devouring humans.
